SHOCKER: Secret reason RHEA reconciled with Tubby Li’l Hubby DANNY

It took the world’s press a whole WEEK to catch up after I scooped last Nov. 28 that DANNY DEVITO and RHEA PERLMAN were working on a reconciliation following the abrupt bust-up of their longtime marriage – so pay close attention NOW, folks!

Even though the world’s press just reported that the embattled couple have suddenly reconciled, nobody’s told The Untold Story of WHY Rhea finally forgave Tubby Li’l Hubby for his wandering eye – so here’s the naked truth!

Revealed a close pal of both: “What sealed the deal is that Rhea got tough and made Danny agree his life would be an open book for her – that she’d be free to browse through his cell phone messages, computer e-mails, bank accounts, etc., at ANY time, without his permission or even his knowledge.

Danny literally had to cry buckets of tears and swear on his life that he’ll NEVER, EVER cheat – or even look at another woman!”

Before Iron Maiden Rhea relented, said friends of the couple, Danny’s love for her was the ONLY subject he ever talked about!

“Truthfully, we all kept praying she’d take him back – just so we wouldn’t have to listen to him anymore. Now Danny’s over the moon about becoming a family again, and he knows he’d better toe the line – or Rhea will kick his butt out for good!”
